Should be five stars, but people complaining about controls are right. Swipe controls only is suboptimal at best and often incredibly frustrating. Left, right, and bomb buttons would help tremendously. Otherwise, a fun game with a unique concept.

Nitro me at its best! I've been with nitro me since the beginning of its hot air days, and Nitro me Made a hit porting this steam game to mobile. This game proves A moderately priced game can be fun, this game combos puzzle with action. My only problem with the game is that the controls aren't sensitive enough. The games make use of swipes for moving which makes maneuvering near objects difficult. If Nitro me could add touchpad controls as an option its help. Nonetheless, this is quality 💯

This game is trash, terrible controls and no option to change them. You MUST slide left or right to move the chicken instead of just pressing left or right on the left side to move, ON TOP OF THAT these geniuses made it so that if you press up on the move side, the chicken lays a bomb while the right side is also for laying bombs WHILE making it so that if your chicken is near a bomb when it explodes, IT KILLS YOUR FREAKING CHICKEN. So it's easy to accidently lay a bomb and die when moving.

Was on the beta, sent nitro me emails through beta, nothing for ages, so I sent an email through Gmail, and got a rude and snotty reply from nitro me saying they hadn't received any messages from me through beta, and thst they hadn't had time to do anything about this game, so I took a photo of the original message, and sent that, haven't received any reply from them. Glitches between transferring from one screen to another, enemies float when you destroy the platforms they are on, when you go back

This is a very well-made game, and I'm quite enjoy it so far. The only reason I'm giving this game 1 star is because many people already complains about the swipe control option in the game, and it's bugging me so hard. Every time if you want to move the character into a directed direction you have to swipe and if you not swipe like 40% of the screen and holding still the character will stop moving stand still. This very bad control design should have changed to dedicate button instead.
